Syngenta Pulls Paraquat from Australia | Sydney News

Description

Syngenta is pulling its paraquat herbicide from Australia and New Zealand, citing new APVMA restrictions and unsustainable costs, despite the regulator saying safe use doesn’t raise Parkinson’s risk. The company, already ending global production by June, is also shutting down its third-party supply deal — leaving generic versions, mostly from Chinese manufacturers, to fill the gap. Farmers are bracing for added costs and complexity as they must now manage updated label requirements themselves, while Syngenta phases out its products by APVMA deadlines.
